A low cost Short Message System (SMS) based Home security system equipped with motion, smoke, temperature, humidity and light sensors has been studied and tested. The sensors are controlled by a microprocessor PIC 18F4520 through the SMS having password protection code for the secure operation. The user is able to switch light and the appliances and get instant feedback. Also in cases of emerge...

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) security has become the primary focus of research efforts in ad hoc communication environment. Dynamic nature of MANET results into unique and considerable difficulties of providing security. Many security schemes have been proposed to protect the communication in an ad hoc network. This paper includes detailed analysis on secured extension to AODV i.e Secure ad ho...

Network security and cryptography is a subject about how to protect information in digital form and to provide security services. The purpose of a digital signature is to provide a means for an entity to bind its identity to a piece of information. The common attacks on digital signature were reviewed. The first method was the RSA signature scheme, which remains today one of the most practical ...

Cloud computing provides infrastructure to the enterprise through the Internet allowing access to cloud services at anytime and anywhere. This pervasive aspect of the services, the distributed nature of data and the wide use of information make cloud computing vulnerable to intrusions that violate the security of the cloud. This requires the use of security mechanisms to detect malicious behavi...

The service oriented architecture (SOA) is gaining more momentum with the advent of network services on the Web. A programmable and machine accessible Web is the vision of many, and might represent a step towards the semantic Web. However, security is a crucial requirement for the serious usage and adoption of Web services technology. This paper reviews existing work related to Web service secu...

Corporates and organizations across the globe are spending huge sums on information security as they are reporting an increase in security related incidents. The proliferation of cloud, social network and multiple mobile device usage is on one side represent an opportunity and benefits to the organisation and on other side have posed new challenges for those policing cybercrimes. Cybercriminals...

‘Secure routing in Mobile Ad hoc networks’ and ‘Internet connectivity to Mobile Ad hoc networks’ have been dealt separately in the past research. This paper proposes a light weight solution for secure routing in integrated Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET)-Internet. The proposed framework ensures mutual authentication of Mobile Node (MN), Foreign Agent (FA) and Home Agent (HA) to avoid various atta...

The rapid growth of Wireless Network has raised a great concern for security threats. Currently, security is regarded as one of the critical parameter for the acceptance of any wireless networking technology. Any node under attack in wireless network presents an anomalous behavior called the malicious behavior. In this circumstance, the entire operation of a network gets troubled and to prevent...

A Cloud data storage system consists of collection of storage servers over the internet which provides long term storage services. The data stored in a third party’s cloud system may cause serious concern over data confidentiality. To keep sensitive user data confidential against un-trusted servers and to provide security, access control in cloud there are some cryptographic techniques speciall...

The goal of a this IDS is to identify malicious behaviour that targets a network or a host and its resources. Intrusion detection parameters are numerous and in many cases they present uncertain and imprecise causal relationships which can affect attack types. A Bayesian Network here used is a graphical modeling tool which used to model decision problems containing uncertainty. BN and K2 learni...
